A LIVERPOOL tour bus has turned pink to raise awareness of breast cancer.

The Yellow Duckmarine tours the city before taking to the water to give tourists a look round the docks.

Th operators have teamed up with The Linda McCartney Centre at the Royal Liverpool University Hospital to raise awareness of breast cancer in the UK and to raise money for the charity during October – which is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

Sales manager Paddy Lemm said: “It’s a really worthwhile cause and something that everyone in the office wanted to support.”

And he said the pink duck has been attracting lots of attention since it launched on Friday.

He said: “Lots of people have been asking for a ride on it. I think at the moment it’s more popular than our yellow ducks!”
